I have had my bookmarks automatically deleted between times when I close out of
Firefox and start it up again. This first happened after I downloaded the new
Firefox 1.0. I add new bookmarks or transfer tehm from internet explorer and
they are gone when I log onto Firefox the next time I am using the internet. I
absolutely loved firefox before this happened and have told many friends about
the browser, but now I am not really satisfied because i use my bookmarks often.
I am sure you can understand why I have a problem and I would really appreciate
if you could contact me and help solve this problem before I switch back to
Internet Explorer. I would rather use Firefox to be honest with you. Thank you
for your time. Luke Roberts  lrroberts@yahoo.com

Your lizard is too old to report bugs against.

You probably need to check the FAQ sheet and other troubleshooting resources
for Firefox.

Reporter, do you use 1.0 or 1.0PR (0.10.1)?
